WOMEN MAKE GOOD CLERKS?
This Question Discussed by Hotel
Men jn Convention.
GOVERNOR SPOKE LAST NIGHT
Dler Ranqaet at Ram Marke (I see
the Tin hays' Preston of the
.Nebraska ana lona
Aaeolatloa.
Whether a woman In the position of
hotel clerk la aa satisfactory aa a man
ws a question whlrh proved to be an In
teresting one at the eeaalon of the Ne-
jbraska and Iowa Hotel Clertis' convention
In the hotel Home yesterday. After
! arguments by the score had been pre
'scnted asaloet women clerks, the ques
tion was put over Indefinitely and no
further action was taken. This question
was brought up during the, "question
box" period of the session ami It excited
much comment.
Another measure that was discussed
was tho proposition to merge the Ne
braska and Ioa association with the
Twin City ai-Koclutloii of St. I'eul and
Minneapolis. Colonel William Anderson,
one of the organisers of the association,
said that Inasmuch as the Nebraska or
ganisation was already well founded and
In much bettor shape than the Twin Cltr
association, it would not be ndvlsable to
effect the consolidation. However, he
stated that If the Twin City association
wished to com. In with the Nebraska and
Iow;i association, they could do so by
enteritis; the Nebraska and Iowa rsnHs
as Individuals.
I'urliur the morning session it was pro
posed that the Nebraska slid Iowa -soclatlon
take in all of the territory cov
ered by the Northwestern Hotel Men's
assockitlon and change the name of the
organisation from the Nebraska and lows
Hotel Clerks' 'association to that of the
Northwestern Hotel Clerks' association.
H. B. fkimers. of Ottumw-a. la., read
an Interesting paper in which lie dla
coursed upon the good of organisation
among the clerks, and he told the dele
gates that the Iowa clerks were heartily
co-operating with their Nebraska broth
era. Earl Byer, president of. the Twin
City association, In a brief address told
of the working of the organisation at
which he stood at the head, and ho gave
many pointeis to the delegates assembled
In the matter of injecting enthusiasm
into their organisations.
The convention came to a close with a
big banquet In the Her "Grand hotel, at
which Governor C. II. Aldrlrh spoke.
Shoplifters Are
Busy in City; Trio
Caught by Detective
With the arrival of the Christmas sea
son and the holiday crowds st the de
partment stores has come the professional
and amateur shoplifter. That some pro
fessionals, have arrived Is proven by the
arrest of three In the Brandeta store
Tussdsy afternoon. They gave their
names as Fred Harrison, John Arnold
and Mable Donovan, but gave no address.
The trio were arrested by W. II. Casey,
a Plnkerton detective, who has been
employed by the Mrandels stores to keep
tils eyes open during the holiday rush.
When searched by Mr. Casey Jn a pri
vate office at the store, forty yards of
expensive silk was taken from a con
cealed pocket In the lining of Harrison's
coat. They were arrested and placed
In jail, while the local police investigate
the case, with a view of locating more
loot which Is known to have been stolen
within the last few dsys.
Fred Harrison, according to Mr. Casey,
is an old timer at the game and one of
the best in his profession. He Is known
all over the county, but It was thought
that he had left the country after serv
ing a term In Colorado for grand larceny
from a Pueblo store in 1908. His accom
plices are also -well known lifters, and
it la thought that thsy are part of a gang
which Is working the stores In the city.
The coat which Harrison wore had a
pocket In the lining all the way around
the bottom. , The loot could be slipped
into tms expansive pocket through the
outside coat pocket. They were spotted
by lasey as soon aa they entered the
store. But he waited until they had lifted
something before he placed them under
arrest.
Not only has the Hrandeis' stores put
on extra men for the holiday season,
out Bennett s. Hsydens' and all the
other Jarge department stores have done
likewise. Uniformed officers are stationed
In all the stores In the city and warning
has been sent out by Acting Chief of
Detectives William Devereese to watch
out for pickpockets and shoplifters who
are drifting Into the city.
